Two days ago I installed XBMCbuntu from xbmc.org's download section on my HP laptop, but I instantly encountered problems.

The problem I'm having is that if "cold-start" XBMC and start a 720p movie, everything freezes and I can't do nothing but hard-reset the computer. However, if I start a SD movie (480p), everything runs smooth. If I stop that movie and then start a 720p movie, it runs smooth as well. It's like XBMC/the computer has to warm up before playing a 720p movie...

I would really appreciate if anyone would like to help me fix this problem!
